Vertebra

When I was down at the shop in Drumheller last week I had a look at this replica of a large vertebra.  This is carved from foam and covered with a layer of plastic, prior to being detailed and painted.  This is from one of the largest dinosaurs that ever lived... a large sauropod.  This life size replica is hanging on the wall, beside a standard 3' x 7' metal door.  This gives some sense of the scale of this bone, and how big the actual animal would have been.
